** Description changed:

  Hi All,
  
  We updated ubuntu MATE 15.04 and Lubuntu 15.04 on our PowerPC computers
  (Power Mac G5 Quad and AMIGA one X1000) last week. Synaptic told us that
  it want to remove xserver-xorg-video-radeon and xserver-xorg-video-ati.
  But there are new versions available (xserver-xorg-video-radeon
  1:7.5.0-1ubuntu2 and xserver-xorg-video-ati 1:7.5.0-1ubuntu2). Synaptic
- removed both old packages and Xorg doesn't work after that. I selected
+ removed both old packages and Xorg didn't work after that. I selected
  both new packages and updated them manually. After a restart I had a
  black screen with a blink cursor. There aren't any error messages in the
  log file '/var/log/Xorg.0.log' but I found some error messages in the
  log file '/var/log/syslog':

  I installed Upstart again but unfortunately it didn't solve the problem
  with the black screen and the blink cursor.
  
  The temporary solution is to downgrade Xorg:
  
  sudo dpkg -i xserver-xorg-core_1.16.0-1ubuntu1.3_powerpc.deb
  sudo dpkg -i xserver-xorg-video-radeon_7.4.0-2ubuntu2_powerpc.deb
  sudo dpkg -i xserver-xorg-video-ati_7.4.0-2ubuntu2_powerpc.deb
  
  I created a package with all debs and Mesa libs for the downgrade last
  week.

  PLEASE help us.
  
  Thanks in advance.
